Solution

The correct option is C Thylakoids
A thylakoid or lamellae is a membrane-bound compartment inside chloroplasts. It consists of a thylakoid membrane surrounding a thylakoid lumen. It forms the stacks of disks referred to as grana and its single functional compartment is called as granum. It is the site for the light reaction in photosynthesis.
